A smart simple spectrophotometric method for simultaneous determination of binary mixtures.

ABSTRACT: A new simple spectrophotometric method was developed for the simultaneous determination of drugs with interfering spectra in binary mixtures without previous separation. The new method is based on a simple modification for the ratio subtraction method. This modification enabled wider range of application. The proposed ratio difference method was applied for the determination of brimonidine and timolol in laboratory prepared mixtures with mean percentage recoveries 100.40±2.29 and 101.23±1.30 respectively, and in their pharmaceutical formulation with mean percentage recoveries 101.08±0.44 and 100.66±0.52 respectively. The suggested ratio difference method was validated according to USP guidelines and can be applied for routine quality control testing.

A Simple Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Glyoxylic Acid in Its Synthesis Mixture.

Project description:A new simple and reliable spectrophotometric method is described to determine glyoxylic acid in its synthesis reaction mixture containing oxalic acid, glycolic acid, acetic acid, glyoxal, and ethylene glycol by means of a modified Hopkins-Cole reaction between glyoxylic acid and tryptophan in presence of ferric chloride and concentrated sulphuric acid. The linear range of glyoxylic acid concentration is 0-0.028 M. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) are 0.0019 M and 0.00577 M, respectively. The LOD, LOQ, standard deviation, relative standard deviation, and recovery ratio of the proposed method are comparable with a selected HPLC reference method. Both methods displayed same precision and credibility. Reaction stoichiometry between tryptophan and glyoxylic acid is assumed to be 2 : 3. Reaction mechanism has been postulated based on identified molar ratios of reactants. Glyoxal gave a negative test with tryptophan although it is a dialdehyde.

A method for evaluating the toxicity interaction of binary mixtures.

Project description:Improving the formulation of biological insecticides for greater efficiency and competitiveness is of particular importance with respect to the successful application of these agents in the field. In this regard, mixing different agents is known to be an effective strategy for enhancing practical pest control. However, traditional chemical-based control strategies have significant limitations that compromise control effectiveness, as effects tend to become increasingly dose-dependent over time. To overcome such limitations, and thereby ensure the continuous effective control of insect pests, we herein assessed the efficacy of binary mixtures of biological agents, with the aim of establishing an optimal ratio. The optimized mixture showed a significantly higher insecticidal effect, whereby biological pest control was considerably enhanced.•We combined Beauveria bassiana spores with azadirachtin, a chemical pesticide of botanical origin, and by assessing the efficacy of these two elements combined in different ratios, obtained an optimal formula. Additionally, we evaluated the compatibility between the two elements, and then assessed potential synergistic effects, as determined by the co-toxicity coefficient.•This protocol is dependent on the results of bioassays. It is not only suitable for combining fungal and chemical agents for the purposes of biocontrol but is also applicable to a variety of biological pesticides.•The evaluated binary mixture showed enhanced effective insect control. This approach will contribute to reducing applied dosages, thereby promoting efficient pest control and reducing application costs.

Simple, fast and reliable CE method for simultaneous determination of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin in human urine.

Project description:A simple, fast, and accurate capillary zone electrophoresis method has been developed for the determination of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin. This method uses liquid-liquid extraction. Therefore, it is characterized by a very simple procedure of sample preparation but at the same time satisfactory precision and accuracy. The extraction process of the same urine sample was repeated three times. The extraction protocol was performed each time for 15 min with 1 mL of dichloromethane and chloroform mixture in a 3:1 volume ratio. A 0.1 mol/L phosphate-borate buffer (pH 8.40) was selected as the background electrolyte. UV detection was performed at 288 nm. The separation was carried out at a voltage of 16 kV, at a temperature of 25 °C. Experimentally evaluated LOQ values for ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin were 0.2 nmol/mL urine and 0.05 nmol/mL urine, respectively. For both analytes the calibration curves exhibited linearity over the entire tested concentration range of 1-6 nmol/mL urine. The precision of the method did not exceed 15%, and the recovery was in the range of 85-115%. The developed and validated procedure was applied to analyze human urine for the content of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin.

A Simple, Sensitive, and Reliable Method for the Simultaneous Determination of Multiple Antibiotics in Vegetables through SPE-HPLC-MS/MS.

Project description:Antibiotics, widely used in livestock breeding, enter the environment through animal manure because of incomplete absorption in animals, especially the farmland ecosystem. Therefore, antibiotics may be adsorbed by plants and even become hazardous to human health through the food chain. In this study, a simple, sensitive, and reliable method was developed for the simultaneous determination of eleven antibiotics, including four sulfonamides, two tetracyclines, three fluoroquinolones, tylosin, and chloramphenicol in different vegetable samples using SPE-HPLC-MS/MS. Vegetable samples were extracted by acetonitrile added with hydrochloric acid (125:4, v/v). The extracts were enriched by circumrotating evaporation, and then cleaned through SPE on a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) cartridge. All compounds were determined on a C18 reverse phase column through HPLC-MS/MS. The mean recoveries of 11 antibiotics from spiked samples of vegetables ranged from 71.4% to 104.0%. The limits of detection and quantification were 0.06⁻1.88 μg/kg and 0.20⁻6.25 μg/kg, respectively. The applicability of this technique demonstrated its good selectivity, high efficiency, and convenience by the analysis of 35 vegetable samples available from a vegetable greenhouse. Antibiotic residues in vegetables have aroused wide concern from the public. Therefore, standards should be established for antibiotic residues in vegetables to ensure food safety and human health.

A simple method for simultaneous RP-HPLC determination of indolic compounds related to bacterial biosynthesis of indole-3-acetic acid.

Project description:In this short technical report, we present a fast and simple procedure for sample preparation and a single-run Reversed Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) determination of seven indoles (indole-3-acetic acid, indole-3-acetamide, indole-3-acetonitrile, indole-3-ethanol, indole-3-lactic acid, tryptamine and tryptophan) in bacterial culture supernatants. The separation of the analytes, after a single centrifugal filtration clean-up step, was performed using a gradient elution on a symmetry C8 column followed by fluorimetric detection (λ(ex) = 280/λ(em) = 350 nm). The calibration curves were linear for all of the studied compounds over the concentration range of 0.0625-125 μg mL(-1) (r ( 2 ) ≥ 0.998) and the limits of detection were below 0.015 μg mL(-1). The applicability of the method was confirmed by analysis of Pseudomonas putida culture supernatants.

Project description:The work introduces green and white sustainable micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) procedure that could analyze therapeutically related drugs, empagliflozin (EMP), linagliptin (LIN) and metformin (MET) which are antidiabetic drugs with different mechanism of action, in their different pharmaceutical combinations. The method not only comply with the green analytical concepts, but also it is in line with sustainable analytical concepts as it is economic by applying the same operating conditions to analyze different pharmaceuticals in quality control (QC) labs which is a crucial step in QC labs and research centers to save time, effort, and money. Moreover, the method functionality regarding its scope with its achieved levels of accuracy, precision, low detection, and quantitation limits is tested using white assessment tool and compared with reported methods. The proposed MEKC coupled with a diode array detector (DAD) has been developed and validated for micro estimation of EMP and LIN in their low critical concentrations with MET in a ratio of (EMP: MET, 1:40) and (LIN: MET, 1:200). Separation was achieved within 6 min using fused silica capillary (40 cm × 50 µm id) using 20 mM Tris buffer (pH 10) in presence of 50 mM sodium dodecyl sulphate and 10% v/v methanol. The concentration ranges of the studied anti-diabetic drugs were 10-500, 10-100 and 2.5-100 µg. mL-1 for MET, EMP and LIN, respectively. The developed method is the first MEKC for concurrent determination of EMP, LIN and MET with high separation efficiency, low solvent consumption and regard as an easy green and white analytical tool. Moreover, Greenness and whiteness assessment were done via the most widely used Analytical Eco-Scale, the innovative AGREE tool and the RGB 12 algorithm.

Solubility Determination and Correlation of Warfarin Sodium 2‑Propanol Solvate in Pure, Binary, and Ternary Solvent Mixtures.

Project description:The solubility of warfarin sodium isopropanol solvate (WS·IPA), a widely used anticoagulant, was determined at temperatures ranging from 278.15 to 333.15 K in four pure solvents (acetone, ethanol, IPA, and water), five binary solvent mixtures (IPA + acetone, IPA + ethanol, IPA + water, IPA + heptane, and IPA + hexane), and five ternary solvent mixtures (IPA + acetone + heptane, IPA + acetone + hexane, IPA + ethanol + heptane, IPA + ethanol + hexane, and IPA + water + heptane) using the polythermal method. It was demonstrated that the solubility of WS·IPA increases with increasing temperature in the pure solvents and at constant solvent composition in the solvent mixtures. In addition, the solubility of WS·IPA in IPA increases with increasing content of acetone, ethanol, and water, which act as cosolvents, and decreases with increasing content of heptane and hexane, which act as antisolvents. The experimental solubility data of WS·IPA in pure solvents and binary and ternary solvent mixtures were correlated using the modified Apelblat and λh model equations. The correlated solubility data agree with the experimental data based on the relative deviation and the average relative deviation (ARD %) values. Thus, the correlated and experimentally derived solubility data of WS·IPA provide a pathway to engineer advanced pharmaceutical crystallization processes for WS·IPA.

Development and Validation of Green UV Derivative Spectrophotometric Methods for Simultaneous Determination Metformin and Remogliflozin from Formulation: Evaluation of Greenness.

Project description:The recent trend in green analytical chemistry is the development of green analytical methods using environmentally friendly solvents. Therefore, three ecofriendly manipulated UV spectroscopic techniques have been validated for the concurrent quantification of newly approved remogliflozin etabonate (REM) and metformin HCl (MET) tablets using water as a solvent. The first method was established using first derivative absorption spectroscopic method by determining the peak amplitude at 233.0 nm for REM and 252.2 nm for MET, a zero crossing of one the component. The second and third methods were based on the peak amplitude difference and first-order derivative absorption of the ratio spectra developed by the manipulation of scanned UV spectra. REM and MET showed good linearity in the series of 1-20 µg ml-1 and 2.5-35 µg ml-1, respectively, by all three methods with an excellent correlation coefficient (r2 ≥ 0.998). Further, the proposed UV spectroscopic techniques were validated as per International Council for Harmonization guidelines. The methods showed good sensitivity, accuracy, and precision. Anticipated procedures were effectively utilized for the concurrent quantification of REM and MET in laboratory prepared mixtures and tablets. The high percent recovery with low standard deviation found for both analytes by all three methods confirms the accuracy and precision of the procedures. Finally, the greenness of the proposed spectroscopic methods, evaluated by semi-quantitative and quantitative methods, showed the eco-friendly nature of the methods. Furthermore, the proposed approaches were simple, accurate, sensitive, economic, and environmentally friendly and hence can be utilized for regular quality control of REM and MET formulation.

Spectrophotometric Analysis of Pigments: A Critical Assessment of a High-Throughput Method for Analysis of Algal Pigment Mixtures by Spectral Deconvolution.

Project description:The Gauss-peak spectra (GPS) method represents individual pigment spectra as weighted sums of Gaussian functions, and uses these to model absorbance spectra of phytoplankton pigment mixtures. We here present several improvements for this type of methodology, including adaptation to plate reader technology and efficient model fitting by open source software. We use a one-step modeling of both pigment absorption and background attenuation with non-negative least squares, following a one-time instrument-specific calibration. The fitted background is shown to be higher than a solvent blank, with features reflecting contributions from both scatter and non-pigment absorption. We assessed pigment aliasing due to absorption spectra similarity by Monte Carlo simulation, and used this information to select a robust set of identifiable pigments that are also expected to be common in natural samples. To test the method's performance, we analyzed absorbance spectra of pigment extracts from sediment cores, 75 natural lake samples, and four phytoplankton cultures, and compared the estimated pigment concentrations with concentrations obtained using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The deviance between observed and fitted spectra was generally very low, indicating that measured spectra could successfully be reconstructed as weighted sums of pigment and background components. Concentrations of total chlorophylls and total carotenoids could accurately be estimated for both sediment and lake samples, but individual pigment concentrations (especially carotenoids) proved difficult to resolve due to similarity between their absorbance spectra. In general, our modified-GPS method provides an improvement of the GPS method that is a fast, inexpensive, and high-throughput alternative for screening of pigment composition in samples of phytoplankton material.

Simple Method for De Novo Structural Determination of Underivatised Glucose Oligosaccharides.

Project description:Carbohydrates have various functions in biological systems. However, the structural analysis of carbohydrates remains challenging. Most of the commonly used methods involve derivatization of carbohydrates or can only identify part of the structure. Here, we report a de novo method for completely structural identification of underivatised oligosaccharides. This method, which can provide assignments of linkages, anomeric configurations, and branch locations, entails low-energy collision-induced dissociation (CID) of sodium ion adducts that enable the cleavage of selective chemical bonds, a logical procedure to identify structurally decisive fragment ions for subsequent CID, and the specially prepared disaccharide CID spectrum databases. This method was first applied to determine the structures of four underivatised glucose oligosaccharides. Then, high-performance liquid chromatography and a mass spectrometer with a built-in logical procedure were established to demonstrate the capability of the in situ CID spectrum measurement and structural determination of the oligosaccharides in chromatogram. This consolidation provides a simple, rapid, sensitive method for the structural determination of glucose oligosaccharides, and applications to oligosaccharides containing hexoses other than glucose can be made provided the corresponding disaccharide databases are available.
